Wano Country, Kuri Province:
Another prosperous day passed as usual, and finally, the night arrived.
Most people went to sleep, covered in happiness, while some remained awake late into the night.
"My dear, aren't you going to sleep?"
Whity Bay hugged her husband from behind and whispered softly.
"Did Momo fall asleep?"
Oden asked with a smile.
"Yes, he's already asleep."
"Alright then, you go ahead to bed. I'll join you after I finish here."
Inside a candlelit room, Oden stayed alone after bidding farewell to his wife and quietly left.
Oden took his notebook and reminisced about the incredible memories he had experienced during the great journey on the Pirate King's ship.
"On the day we reached the final island, we learned everything about the world."
That was the first line Oden wrote in his memoirs.
"The truth of the Void Century, the carriers of the 'D' initial, and the nature of ancient weapons," Oden continued writing.
"Wano Country was once connected to the rest of the world..."
"Hehe~" A big smile appeared on Oden's face as he recalled the amusing events of that day.
"And in front of that great treasure before our eyes, Roger... he laughed!"
"And so did we... we laughed heartily until tears streamed down our faces."
"After Roger stopped laughing, he said he wished he had lived in the era of Joy Boy and wondered why he left behind such an amazing treasure."
"What a funny tale... that's how Roger described the legendary treasure, One Piece, and that's exactly what we all agreed upon."
Oden continued writing, and the smile never left his face.
"At that moment, Roger turned towards us and told us to listen."
"Why don't we name this island, which has remained untouched for 800 years, with something that carries that meaning?" Roger pondered as we all patiently awaited our captain's chosen name.
"Laugh Tale... that was the name Roger gave to the final island."
Oden flipped to the next page and began describing Laugh Tale in detail, connecting it to the manga, One Piece, and the wonders that puzzled Roger's pirate crew that day, as the manga depicted what the Poneglyph located there predicted with great accuracy.
Oden wrote and continued to jot down his thoughts until the wax thread burned completely, and the light went out.
In the end, he placed the notebook in a safe place and went to sleep... tomorrow would be another eventful day on this island that was about to reconnect with the world once again.
...
The cheers echoed throughout Wano Country the next day.
That was because it was an exceptionally special day...
Today, the final episode of the first season of the anime Demon Slayer would be aired!
"Oh my goodness, I'm so excited! Will they fight another Lower Moon after the fifth Lower Moon, Rui?"
The episode quickly began with a peculiar battle between Kanao and Tanjiro, where Kanao emerged victorious by being faster in moving the wooden cups.
"Oh, as expected! The episode's title is a new mission!"
"Indeed, I want to see a sword fight this time! My sword is thirsty for learning new techniques."
"Me too! I hope the mission's target is a demon using a sword."
Most samurai in the country of Wano were fully focused on the bright display screen.
How could they not be, when the anime being shown was the favorite of every swordsman in the world, Demon Slayer!
"What is this place? Why does it look like a strange castle?"
"Is this the sixth Lower Moon? Why does it seem frightened?"
"Oh? This is the first Lower Moon!?"
"And this is the second Lower Moon!?"
"Who is this woman playing the violin? Is it really Demon Blood Art?"
"This is the third Lower Moon? It seems all the Lower Moons have been summoned..."
"That woman with crimson eyes... why does she remind me of Muzan?"
The viewers felt a chill as soon as the female version of Muzan stood there, looking at the crowd of Lower Moons below.
"She was at least a female in their appearance until she spoke..."

"Demon Slayer" Events:

"Lower your heads and crouch down."
"Prostrate yourselves."
As soon as he said that, they all knelt down, unable to control their bodies.
"It's Muzan-sama!" Lower Sixth broke into a cold sweat as he contemplated internally.
"That's Muzan-sama's voice! I didn't recognize him! He's changed his appearance and aura."
"The precision of his shape-shifting is mind-blowing!"
"P-please forgive us!" Lower Four began apologizing, trembling.
"Since you've assumed a different form and aura..."
"Who gave you permission to speak? Don't presume to voice your worthless thoughts."
"Answer my questions. Nothing else."
As Muzan spoke, it caused immense terror among all the present Lower Moons.
"Rui was killed. I'm talking about Lower Five."
"I have but one question to ask of you."
"Why is it that you, demons in the lower ranks, are so utterly weak?"
"You shouldn't be satisfied with just being counted among the Twelve Kizuki."
"What is merely your starting point? To devour more humans, to gain more power..."
"Your starting point for becoming useful to me..."
"For over a century, the members of the Upper-Rank Twelve Kizuki remain unchanged. It's always been the demons in the Upper Ranks who've disposed of those Hashira demon hunters."
"But what about you demons in the Lower Ranks? How many times have you been replaced?"
"That's easy for you to say, but we..." Lower Sixth was contemplating internally, unaware that his thoughts were completely exposed to Muzan.
"What? Go ahead and say it."
"Please forgive me, Kibutsuji-sama! Please! Please show me mercy! I'm truly sorry! I'm truly sorry! I'm tru—"
Before he could finish his words, he turned into a mist of blood.
•———•———•———•———•———•
"How terrifying... How horrifying..."
"Oh, what a massacre!"
"Oh God, how terrifying..."
"The Lower Moons died one after another, like mosquitoes being swatted."
"In the end, the First Lower Moon survived because it was the most perverted one my eyes had ever seen..."
"This... is strange. These demons... he completely wiped out most of his Lower Moons like this..."
"If they were left alive, they could have caused a lot of trouble for the Hashira, Tanjiro, and his companions... If only they were as powerful as Rui."
Including Kin'emon and Denjiro, all the samurai in Wano were enjoying today's episode, which was the last of the season.
...
But far away in the Kingdom of Sorbet, a certain deviant was enjoying the episode for a different reason...
"It's... It's Okama! The Great Demon King is indeed Okama! Hahaha!"
"N-fufufufu! The feminine form of Muzan is truly magnificent."
Seeing this splendid scene filled Ivancov with excitement.
He never thought he would witness the ultimate villain in Demon Slayer turning into a woman.
Not only that, but it seemed more splendid than being a man.
Hearing this, Crocodile wished he would die.
"What's with this Okama? Why is he so excited?"
That was what Crocodile was thinking at the moment.
